Zane Intelligence Exchange Center

"Hey, have you guys heard? Something interesting has appeared in the Zane Dungeon. It can summon clones of ourselves that are exactly the same in every way."

"Really? Are they sold in the market now? Can they take my place at work? Working night shifts every day is really deadly."

"Well... I think it might be a bit difficult."

Whenever something new appears in the Zane Dungeon, the tavern where all sorts of people gather is often the most lively place for discussion.

Taverns can be considered the largest exchange center for any kind of information. From national affairs to trivial matters, you can find out anything here.

Of course, if you accidentally offend some drunkards while asking around, the news of you being beaten up by XX will become one of the topics of conversation in the tavern. If the way you were beaten up was a bit artistic, you might be admired for even longer.

In fact, the people who frequent the tavern don't just talk about the Zane Dungeon; they like to discuss anything fun or novel. Sien is a hot topic because it often comes up with something new and interesting.

The most amazing thing that happens here is that some things that are clearly important but niche news can often be revealed by a group of ordinary drunkards.

It makes one wonder if some kind of causal law is hidden inside the tavern.

"I remember the latest item they found was a remnant called the Mimic Tear,' right? Using that thing lets you transform into an afterimage from that dungeon, it feels so cool!"

"Really? I saw someone wandering around the portal yesterday selling a remnant that supposedly turns into something called a 'Dung Eater'. I watched him all night, and nobody bought it."

"Well, that should be considered a special case. Most of the afterimages that can be created are still pretty cool, right?"

"Hey, why are you all discussing these trivial matters? My topic is the most fashionable. The hottest topic right now is that Mimic Tear King Ai!"

"If you can't even pronounce their full title, then stop yelling here. Get out of here. You're obviously drunk."

As the drunkard said, the most discussed topic recently is the "Mimic Tear of the Eternal King", mainly because the opponent can transform into the appearance of the Elden Lord and fight against people.

After the news spread, most of those qualified to enter the Eternal City Nokron became restless and marched toward the Night's Domain.

In the past few days, there has been a surge in photos of the Mimic Tear that challenged the Eternal King. Although none of them have won, only a few have managed to survive and mimic Mimic Tear appearance of the Tarnished.

But regardless of whether they can hold out, as long as new photos are released, a buying frenzy will ensue.

It seems that the product appeal of Zane Dungeon is quite strong.

The Tarnished, modeled after the Mimic Tear, have been the subject of various research and interpretations by different people with different purposes, resulting in a large number of contradictory research findings.

However, something amazing happened: no matter how outrageous the research results were, there were always some people who believed them. After all, there were just too many people paying attention to this, so many that there would always be someone who would support a minority viewpoint.

One of the least popular viewpoints is that the evidence presented by the "Elden Lord" is a team rather than a single person, which is the constant changing shape of the Mimic Tear.

This is so outrageous that almost no one believes it.

As is well known, the boss of the Zane Dungeon always offers unique rewards.

Although no one has yet been able to defeat the Mimic Tear, that doesn't stop people from fantasizing about the reward.

Some say the reward will be a weapon used by the Elden Lord, others say it will be a Mimic Tear that can be used an unlimited number of times, and still others say it will lead to the whereabouts of the Elden Lord.

In short, there are all sorts of opinions, and these comments are raising people's expectations for rewards to an unprecedented level.

The existence of the Mimic Tear has also opened up many new ways for adventurers to play.

For example, learn the equipment setups of those characters with afterimages.

"Looking for a Tarnished Jellyfish Shield, pay a hefty price. Please contact me if interested."

"Kisa's weapon looks really powerful. Are there any craftsmen who can make it? I can pay for it."

"I see, so the Shield Poke can be used like that."

It is foreseeable that a considerable number of adventurers will equip themselves with weapons based on the gear of those Mimic Tear, which serve as an excellent example.

Won't this cause the battle between intrusion and counter-intrusion to escalate further?

If the topics discussed among adventurers every day could be compiled into a trending list, then the current hot topic would be the Eternal City.

Whether it's the Mimic Tear prop that can transform into other afterimages or the ability to fight against the Tarnished, it caters to people's preferences. More importantly, this is a new area!

Finally, a new place to explore has been found. Most people are fickle and eager for novelty, so of course they flock to Nokron for adventure.

Those adventurers who haven't yet started the "Stars Falling Before Their Eyes" event are naturally begging and pleading to find a team that can participate in the challenge Battle Festival.

It is said that, with the help of the Adventurers' Guild, several well-known Strategy Team have jointly discussed and planned to hold a Battle Festival with high-level combat power on a regular basis. Firstly, the rewards of the Battle Festival are indeed generous and require the cooperation of many people to complete. Secondly, it would give adventurers who have not yet been able to enter the Eternal City an opportunity.

When it comes to adventure, adventurers can really demonstrate a remarkable sense of unity.

The newly opened Eternal City Nokron area is enough to keep adventurous players entertained for a long time.

Besides the Tarnished and the Mimic Tear, another discovery in the Eternal City has sparked heated discussion.

"Hey, I think I just heard something, that people who don't believe in the Erdtree will be persecuted? That Eternal City was smashed into the ground, how scary!"

"What are you afraid of? That's ancient history, how could it possibly affect you now?"

"What if the Zane Dungeon goes berserk? The excuse will be dealing with heretics who don't believe in the Erdtree!"

"How long have you been suffering from this paranoia?"

As various stone tablets were gradually discovered, the mystery surrounding the events that occurred in the Eternal City was gradually cleared up, and the events gradually became clearer with the help of people's imaginations.

It was only then that people realized that the Golden Order was not as benevolent or merciful as they had imagined.

However, this is not surprising. After all, it's about faith, and it's perfectly normal for people of different faiths to attack each other.

Now, if anyone still wants to create a sect based on the Zane Dungeon, besides the recently emerging Erdtree, they have a new basis: the Ancestral Spirits and the Eternal City.

But besides the Sparkfire Church, who else would use the Zane Dungeon as a model to create a sect?

It seems like only that chaotic country remains.

"My newest dungeon is complete!"

In the Lord's room in the Zane Dungeon.

Gong Qiying rubbed his dry eyes, which hadn't had much rest in the past few days. He hadn't expected that even Living Dead would feel dry eyes.

But after working overtime for the past few days, the results are finally in!

"Fanatic Dungeon, activate!"
